And don’t forget Thawte which ended up selling strong SSL outside the US, cornering the international market thanks to US restrictions, and getting bought by Verisign for $600M.

Is it legally feasible to fork StackOverflow and create a competing platform using the same content? Or is the license just window dressing to provide contributors with the feeling that they could do that if they wanted to... but not really

There seems to be a consensus that we haven't yet seen the killer AI app that produces ROI that justifies the level of investment we're seeing. If that's true, then it's all still up for grabs. My own view is that what A

“…and you won’t like their secret” And y’all just keep scrolling through the ads for that secret that’ll explain to you what to be angry about. Some shit will never stop working.

Blog about this and provide more detail and background. Links to content, screenshots of the subpoena. Looks like your post has been flagged here. I'd go into more detail if you want visibility on this.

I think a lot of "I'm retired" is just wealth signaling. I recently lost a 94 year old buddy who was working and curious until the end. No one wants to party with the "I'm retired" guy when that's all he h

This seems hand wavy. Nothing that demonstrates that they have any understanding of how aircraft currently navigate with GPS, WAAS, levels of accuracy that enable or rule out certain procedures. It’s like they decided to just co-opt aviatio
